Discussion With Rob (3D Technician)
I have just been in my space for the degree show with Rob to discuss the construction of boards so I can place an order for the materials I will be needing. We have decided to construct a hatch which I will be able to climb through in order to get to the Macs. I shall also need to blackout the window with suitable blackout material.
Statement For Catalogue
“The artworld network is the ground of possibility for anything to appear as art for us today.” (Arthur Danto)
Is it purely the physical context of the gallery that determines an object becoming a piece of art?

Lee Yongbaek
The screens showing my videos will be level with the boards. This idea reminded me of some work I saw at the Venice Biennale last year by the artist Lee Yongbaek which was shown in the Korean pavilion. Below are some images of his work and also a video which documents his work at the Biennale.
Decision For Layout Of Exhibition Space For Degree Show
I have decided to use the layout in my third idea (the L-shape). This is because the space created will be smaller and thus more intimate. The excessive nature of the videos will be revealed to a greater extent as they will be shown over a smaller area and therefore they will be able to be viewed together at the same time as well as separately. Obstructions (such as bulky lights and smoke alarms) will also be out of sight and as a result will not become distractions.
Third Design For Layout Of Exhibition Space For Degree Show
The third idea consists of creating an L-shape out of boards and using the section of the room close to the door.
Second Design For Layout Of Exhibition Space For Degree Show
The second idea involved spacing the Mac screens around the room as opposed to being placed all on one wall.
First Design For Layout Of Exhibition Space For Degree Show
The first idea I had was to have all the screens showing my videos on the back wall. A corridor will need to be built to enable me to get behind the boards to reach the Macs.
'Revisitations'
Recently seen an interesting selection of work at the Ipswich Art School
gallery. The exhibition ‘Revisitations’ featured artwork from the Saatchi
Gallery, London.
Aleksandra Mir’s piece (‘Newsroom’,
1986-2000) particularly grabbed my attention due to it being text based and the
curatorial decisions. Mir originally created this work for an exhibition
at the Mary Boone gallery, New York
in 2007. For the duration of the exhibition, a Manhattan newsroom environment was created in
which she worked.
